Mrs. Campbell remarked that the 1990 Plan should not be adopted without some comment as to the years of study in bringing it about. She said she feels it very worthwnile when something of this nature is accomplished; that this Plan does establish priorities for use of tax dollars and natural resources; that it is important to realize the Plan is flexible and the urban service boundary is subject to change, but it also presents the opportunity to fill in land within the boundary where services are already available. She noted that because of the change in attitude of the public brought out at the Plan hearings, the ESATS plan will now be restudied; and that hopefully a Citizens Advisory Committee will be s~t up for the 1990 Plan to assist the Council wi th review. .

"'"", Considerable discussion followed on clarification of the motion, with Mrs. Campbell and Mrs.Beal asking about.-..-the responsibilities of the Citizens Advisory Committee ~ Manager said the process of considering amendments to the Plan has not been thoroughly explored, and referring these questions to the Eugene Planning Commission would give them a vehicle for working out a procedure whereby any suggested amendment would be unified consideration by all three agencies.' Planning Director said the Citizens Advisory Committee has not been appointed but that it will be active in reviewing the Plan. Some issues have been discussed and will be taken back to the other agencies on a continuing basis, but this has not'yet been worked out.
